DMZ documentation

dclab
Newbie eval user here.  Doing my initial setup, and have gone thru the manual.  The only mention of DMZ really is in the introduction.  Is there any write-up on properly setting up a DMZ?  I'm going by the assumption from other firewalls that I'd be setting up a third interface.  Please advise.

    Yes, use a third interface.
    Add rules to ALLOW the DMZ to make connections to the INT network if applicable.

    Add a rule to logdrop all (other) traffic from DMZ to the INT network.

    Add rules to ALLOW the DMZ to make connections to the internet if applicable.

    (Theory should be same as any other firewall)

    Thanks for responding.
    For the third interface do I make it a standard ethernet interface?  It's requiring an ip address which is something I'm not used to.  Previous firewalls didn't require the interface to have an address.  My DMZ port would be connected to a switch which houses the DMZ machines.  
    thx.
